Publisher Description
There’s only one woman I truly care about: my daughter. Until Maisy Stratford flounces into the front office of the Tennessee Thunderbolts with a heartfelt smile and a tray of baked goods.
As the Bolts’ newest hire, Maisy is optimistic, enthusiastic, and a goddess at manifestation.
Everything I’m not.
Known as Brawler, I’m a gruff, quiet, rough-around-the-edges, NHL defenseman. I haven’t dated in decades. I’ve never been married and my daughter’s a twenty-one-year-old mischief maker. I don’t know how to talk about feelings or place my trust in the hands of a woman. Even one with a heart of gold.
With my daughter Lola egging me on, I finally ask Maisy out.
But I don’t want to be her rebound; I want to be her forever. Even if I don’t know how to tell her that. Even if she’s not ready for me.
If I’m being honest, I’m not ready for her either.

Ticked all my boxes
This is the second book in the Tennessee Thunderbolts Series and it’s certainly shaping up to be a hit for Ms Azzi. This is Axel ( Brawler) and Maisy’s journey and if single parents are your jam ( this one is a 21 year old daughter invested in her fathers happiness) look no further than this entertaining, beautifully written story.
Lola is doing her best to find hers father a partner, a girlfriend that will fill the void she sees in his life so when she finds out he is interested in Maisy she goes all out to convince him to take a chance and ask her out…..
Maisy has been burnt and hurt in the past and is not sure she is ready for a new relationship so can Brawler convince her to take another chance on love and more importantly take a chance on him.
I loved everything about this book, I found myself cheering this couple on as I joined their bumpy road to happiness. I laughed, I sighed and I swooned but what took this book to another level was the family of team members to who make up the Tennessee Thunderbolts. Can’t wait for what’s coming next in this wonderful series
Loved it
Having read the first book in the series I was really looking forward to reading Brawler’s Weakness. It was everything I expected and so much more.
This is Axel (aka Brawler) and Maisy’s story and it was well written and entertaining with characters who were wast to relate to and likeable. Add in Brawler’s twenty one year old daughter Lola who is totally invested in her father’s love life and you know that you are for in for some laugh out loud moments.
I fell hard and fast for Brawler, he ticked all the boxes for me. Brawler hasn't dated in years and is reluctant to ask Maisy out. However, despite his reservations, Lola convinces him to ask her.
Brawler and Maisy are not good at communicating with one another, she has been hurt in the past and he is convinced that he is a rebound for Maisy. There were moments where I wanted to smack some sense into them, I was that frustrated with both of them.
I loved the camaraderie among the players and that they became a family, not of blood, but a family none the less. Their journey may have been frustrating at times but it was entertaining.
I look forward to reading more in the series and am excited to see who is next.
